Angeline
Unraveling Desires: Angeline's Unkind Embrace
Lyrics
Whatever are you doing here
Questioning the purpose of Angeline's presence
Whatever brought you through that door
Wondering about the reason for Angeline's entrance
Angeline, you're so unkind
Expressing dissatisfaction with Angeline's unkind behavior
To treat me like some kind of whore
Feeling mistreated, comparing it to being treated like a whore
Giving you everything while being ignored
Giving everything to Angeline, yet being ignored
Frankly's become quite a bore
Describing Frankly's presence as monotonous or tiresome
Keep all your money and false-hearted praise
Rejecting money and insincere compliments from Angeline
I didn't come here cause I need you
Clarifying that the visit is not out of necessity
I just came to share in my love in these days
Expressing the intention to share love, not dependency
Where everything's trying to bleed you
Reflecting on a challenging environment where everything is draining
In this dark den full of mirrors and haze
Describing a dark and confusing place with mirrors and haze
I see you hope someone will see you
Observing Angeline's hope for acknowledgment
Well I see you
Acknowledging the speaker's ability to see Angeline
Oh Angeline, you're so unkind
Reiterating Angeline's unkindness
I don't know why you come around
Expressing confusion about Angeline's frequent presence
But Angeline, I really don't mind
Indicating acceptance despite not understanding Angeline's motives
In the morning I'm leaving this town
Announcing the decision to leave the town the next morning
I'll get through this night and I won't grieve
Determining to endure the night without sorrow
I'll just burn through it like a fever
Comparing the experience to burning through it like a fever
I just can't be who you want me to be
Rejecting the idea of conforming to Angeline's expectations
But you can't be what I want either
Acknowledging the impossibility of Angeline meeting the speaker's desires
Say what you like, I'm feeling alright
Asserting a positive emotional state despite the circumstances
She makes it so easy to leave her
Highlighting the ease of leaving Angeline
I used to get bitter angry and numb
Reflecting on past bitterness and anger towards Angeline
Leave cursing your name in the streets
Recalling negative reactions, including cursing Angeline's name
Now I don't see how I could be so dumb
Expressing a realization of past foolishness
To lay all these pearls at your feet
Noting the speaker's previous submission and devotion
And think it was I in defeat
Recognizing a mutual conceit between both individuals
Both of us full of conceit
Describing a situation where both are filled with pride
Oh Angeline, you're so unkind
Reiterating Angeline's unkindness
I don't know why you come around
Expressing ongoing confusion about Angeline's visits
But Angeline, I really don't mind
Reaffirming acceptance despite the lack of understanding
In the morning I'm leaving this town
Repeating the decision to leave the town in the morning
